Palermo striker Paulo Dybala, who has been linked with a move to Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool, admits that he wants to play in the Champions League.
The 21-year-old is almost certain to leave Palermo at the end of the season after failing to agree on a new contract with the club and it has been speculated that he has already agreed personal terms with Italian champions Juventus.
However, the Argentine has sought to cool down the rumours surrounding his future at the club and said that he is happy with his status at Palermo.
Though he added that he wants to play in the Champions League, Dybala is in no mood to antagonise the Palermo fans before the summer transfer window swings open.
“I will like to play in the Champions League and wear the colours of my national team”, Dybala told Rete Palermo.

“But I would be disrespecting the Palermo fans if said something else.
“I am very happy with my situation in Sicily and am focused on finishing the season well.”
Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool are all said to be willing to take the Argentine to England this summer, but Juventus are believed to be the favourites to land Dybala.
However, Palermo’s asking price of €40m is believed to be the major hurdle in any negotiations surrounding the 21-year-old forward.
